Remember this quilt....this is Carolina Crossroads, a mystery quilt I did 2 years ago with Bonnie of Quiltville....well as always there are left overs!
I have these three Ohio Star blocks plus quite a few other blocks from that quilt left over.I'm thinking a table runner from these three blocks would be nice for a secret Santa gift...
I have some more of that light background fabric which I could use for the setting triangles, then perhaps a scrappy patch border and I'll have another gift to mark off the list...good one!

Until next time...♥

Looks like a lovely centre piece in the making! I have to make a table centre for our Guild Christmas party, too. I saw a great bargello one and hope to start it tonight. See the pics on my new blog - Airdmillan Ayrings.

GREAT idea for those leftover blocks!
It is so nice when you can use leftovers, it will be lovely.
That will be a lovely tablerunner Julia. There are so many pretty fabrics to choose from, aren't there? You always have such exquisite taste when purchasing new fabrics - I enjoy seeing your projects.
Yes they look great Julia, I too need more hours in the day.

Love the idea of a tablerunner with the leftovers. I think we need to stop eating and sleeping. Think of all the extra time we would have :-)
